Same here.  No one I've asked was aware this contest existed... OK, I
haven't asked that many people, but so far it comes as a surprise to
everyone.  Was it announced in an openSUSE newsletter?  This isn't the
first time that something was happening, and the larger openSUSE
community wasn't aware of it.  How are we supposed to be alerted to
things like this?  newsletter?  email?  front page of the opensuse.org
site?  Somehow a bunch of us are missing out on a part of the
community activities.
